  • the present invention is not limited to this, and the semiconductor substrate and the atoms are placed in the main body container. It suffices if there is a receiver that transports each other.
  • the main body container may have a form in which a holding portion for holding a material serving as a transmitter / receiver for transporting atoms to and from the semiconductor substrate is provided.
  • the manufacturing apparatus of the present invention preferably has a configuration in which the semiconductor substrate is arranged in a semi-closed space.
  • the semi-closed space in the present specification means a space in which the inside of the container can be evacuated, but at least a part of the above generated in the container can be confined. By making the space semi-closed, it is possible to suppress an unintended reaction of the semiconductor substrate and the main body container.
